At some point he will reach too far and the people will stand up.
Ain’t no big whoop; they can’t force me to listen. I already don’t watch t.v. except briefly in the morning to catch weather, traffic and the leg show on Fox. So what’ll happen? Radio will go the way of the newspapers.
Speaking of Fox; anyonelse noticing increasing frequency of “outages” of Fox on cable?
It’s called shortwave radio. I have one, maybe we should all have one. Now I just need an attic to hide it in.
He will only seize the TALK RADIO stationn! LOL.
All this would be worrisome if it were not for advancing technology, and changes in broadcasting itself.
AM radio is propped up only by talk radio, for the most part, and if it were not for talk radio (conservative talk radio), AM radio in the US would be going the direction of AM radio in Canada, where huge 50kw powerhouses are now owned by “radio clubs”.
The future of radio is not on your radio. The means of delivery of content will be irrelevant (IPOD, MP3, cell phone).
The only control the government has on radio/TV is on those facilities that are granted by the FCC, and therefore must play by the rules.
The Fairness Doctrine would only accelerate the process.
Not if Rush, Savage, Hannity and others have anything to say about it.
